Fiction. Literature. HTML:

Twenty-three years ago, Sam and Dean Winchester lost their mother to a demonic supernatural force. Following the tragedy, their father, John, set out to teach his boys everything about the paranormal evil that lives in the dark corners and on the back roads of America...and how to kill it.

Fans of the blockbuster television phenomenon can rejoice! A one-of-a-kind compilation of all of Sam and Dean's demon-busting knowledge, The Supernatural Book of Monsters, Spirits, Demons, and Ghouls contains illustrations and detailed descriptions that catalogue the more than two dozen otherworldly enemies that most people believe exist only in folklore, superstition, and nightmares:vampires, ghosts, revenants, reapers, and even bloody clowns. You'll find within these pages Sam and Dean's notes, observations, and memories interwoven with sections of John Winchester's invaluable journal, making this book the perfect companion to every thrilling episode—and an essential weapon in the secret war against the hidden creatures of the darkness!

I really, really liked it, but a more recent version would be appreciated, since the book was published in 2009. ( )

I knew going into this book, that it was more detail about the various monsters, spirtis, and demons that the Winchester boys run into in the show Supernatural. I liked the idea of it and as I skimmed through the book before reading it, I liked the format of what I saw. I found some of the legends and such interesting. However, this book is very dry. I feel like this wonderful information could have and should have been presented a more entertaining manner. The book claims that this is coming from the narration of the Winchester brothers but in my opinion it didn't feel that way at all. The best parts of the book where the brief mentions of parts of the episodes from the show and the explanations given in more detail than what you get from watching the show. Again, those were few and far between. There should have been some pictures from the show in with the book also, to go along with the drawings. This book was a good idea, but poorly executed. ( )
